Description from the seller
Vintage Bolex Paillard 18-5 Film Projector – Switzerland, 1960s
Object Description
Splendid and iconic vintage film projector Bolex Paillard Model 18-5, a true masterpiece of Swiss engineering from the 1960s. This model is famous for its outstanding build quality and its revolutionary function (hence the name "18-5"): the ability to project at the standard speed of 18 frames per second, or in slow motion at only 5 frames per second, maintaining constant brightness and without flicker.
Main Features
Origin: Made in Switzerland by Paillard SA (Sainte-Croix).
Film format: Standard 8mm / Super 8.
Optics: Equipped with the original high-precision Swiss lens (Hi-Fi Zoom).
Design: Robust aluminum alloy body with a refined gray/silver finish and elegant chrome detailing.
Special feature: The back features the original vintage label with instructions for fuses in three languages (French, German, English).
Item Condition
Aesthetics: Excellent cosmetic condition, as visible in the detailed photos. The housing shows very few signs of wear and retains its original shine.
Mechanical: Knobs, selectors, and passing arms move smoothly.
The projector appears to have never been used and is in its original packaging with its case.
